Craigslist Buyers....... "Eager Time Wasters, Who Do Not Follow Though".

[GTs58]

I had a lawnmower on Craigslist a few years ago and the only response I got was from a prostitute in Cincinnati wanting to meet me, ha!

You probably had the mower listed in the wrong section like "Services" and she wanted her lawn mowed.

So how did that transaction work out for you?

I THINK you mean,did your transaction have a happy ending?

I used to work with a guy who would set up week end appointments to see houses with his wife..even thought he had no intent to buy....He said it was OK because it was their job to show the house.....I say it was wrong for him and his wife to waste peoples time - yes, he was a flake!

Craigslist buyers are bottom feeders

I'm fat from that, but not my bottom.

Also sold a stereo receiver to a guy without a hitch the other day, even helped him with a couple questions later by phone so he could get it up and going

I like to lye still at the bottom and when my prey rolls by I snag them.

I’m a carp too. Here’s a few I’ve gotten off local Craig’s. Colson Bullnose boys. Only pic I can find on my phone.

Cool DX Klunker

Sweet 41 Columbia

My favorite yet 36-37 Shelby.

And reasonably priced. Bottom feeder for life.

Just a few minutes ago I had my 4th person in a row back out of a appointment that was setup for later today. I won't complain about this last one though, at least he gave me 4 1/2 hours notice and had the decency to not leave me waiting.

(Its not the same Item as before, but it is the same hassle in trying to get a few random items moved out).

Atleast Its a step in the right dirrection.

I just have too much junk, and not enough money. And would like to have less junk and more money.

Last summer a friends father in law, and also his Grandfather past away within months of each other. He was too busy to deal with it all himself, and asked is I would be interested in helping. Alot of the stuff aquired was too nice to toss in the trash. We agreed on a percentage that worked for both of us. (actually he put out a number, and I just accepted), as it was free inventory for my e-bay store. The items that are to large to ship I have been listing on craigslist.

Also when I purchased my current house, it was fully furnished. I moved out of another house that I had owned peviously. So in the move I pretty much doubled up on everything. It has been a blessing in desguise, as I have been selling various items off since I first moved in. I have found there is a collector out there for nearly everything. Even things you would never want for yourself.

Lots of people today look at these old rusty bikes we like, and also just see junk.
